Road Trip Part II

After spending several days in Palm Springs we headed to my most favorite Antique Faire, Alameda Point Antiques Faire in San Francisco.  My heart starts to race thinking about this Faire, we have been going for years.  Chloe was only 3 months old when she went on her first road trip to Alameda.  The Alameda Point Antiques Faire is the largest antiques show in Northern California.
Held on the 1st Sunday of every month, the Faire boasts over 800 Dealer booths. All items are 20 years old or older. The ultimate place to shop for vintage and antique home decorations, clothing, furniture, jewelry, art, pottery, books and collectibles.
 French grain sacks, they make great pillows.  They are now at Faded Elegance!
Antique French wine bottles packed in their original straw packing.

Le truc- yummy! Have to keep Team Faded Elegance fueled!
Great Statuary
Chloe and Charlie posing for a picture, Charlie makes fabulous tables from re-claimed wood and architectural details. This fantastic reclaimed wood table with antique baluster legs had Faded Elegance all over it! 
Anthony is so good at gathering all my treasures while I run around and buy, I've got a good team.  Anthony and Chloe work pretty cheap, a nice dinner after our shopping blitz.

More fabulous finds
My growing treasure trove, four full carts later and we were ready to load our trailer and head to San Francisco’s China Town for a delicious dinner.
